CI'l'l‘AWA. May 8. — The annual report of the Canadian National Railways for 1905 passed the committee of the House oi Com- mom on railway shippin today.

Accompanying commit ee approv- al, however, was a proviso e ‘ could discuss railway matters when the report of the Government Mer- chant Marlne and Canadian Na- tional Steamshlps is taken up. A sitting tomorrow will be devoted to the Merchant Marine report. The Canadian National and the Canadian Pacific were working on plans for closer cooperation, Chair- man 0. P. Fullerton informed the committee when results of pooling operations were under discussion. He estimated savings to the two companies through pooling opera- tions last, year at approximately $1,- 600,000.

Clarify Figures

Hon. H. A. Stewart, (Cons, Leeds)

informed the committee an impres- slon had been given there was a clash in figures of net, loss on the Canadian National last year, refer- red ic in the House by Opposition Leader R. B. Bennett yesterday, and figures given by the chairman of the Canadian National. He asked Chairman Fullerton to say if the figure of $115,281,689 given by Mr. Bennett was not correct as stated in the annual report of the railway. The chairman replied the figure was correct, but it included an amount of $25,000,000 for retiring obsolete equipment and interest on government loans. The actual cash deficit of the Company for 1935 was approximately $47,000,000. The :25,- 000,000 was not a figure which would appear from year to year. It represented an accumulation of ob- solete equipment which the railway considered advisable to write oﬂ last year but which might have been retired at any time in the past five years. It was improbable there would be extensive retirements of railway equipment this year, President S. J. Hungerford, of the government- owned system. said.

Labor Costs

“How do labor costs on the Can- adian National compare with those on the C. P. Rf!" J. J. Kinley (Lib. Queens-Lunenburg) asked.

Young Flier Makes Record

COLUMBUS, 0.. May 'l—<A.P.)— A 22-year-old flier who said he was plans "the avenge guy could own," skidded to a "belly landing’ ‘at Port Oolunrbus late to- day to claim a new distance record for non-stop nights in small ships.

The ﬂier Bob Buck of Westfield, N. J., estimated he had ﬂown more than 2.000 miles from Burbank. Ca1if.,whereheandhiscousin.1ee Belling:-nth, took off at 430 P.l(., P.S.'1'. .

The former record for ships of the same type as his 90-horsepower monoooupe was set in 1930 by a French team that traversed LBW

miles.

Be dropped his landing gear after taking off from Burbank but came down safebhene lohonra and five minutes later.

"We came down slick as a whistle. I never tried landing with- out wheels before. We stopped with a bump and it. threw things around quite a bit. but everythlngfe fine."

plied when figures were put on I1 comparative basis labor costs were similar. The same basic rates were in eﬂect on both railways.

Mr. 1“ai1'weather declared the ef- ficiency of the government-owned system was high.

“It’a my special job to compare the efficiency of the C. N. R. with any other railway, and I'm here to say I have yet to see a railway more efficient than the Canadian Nation- al," he said.

Col. Thomas Vicn, (Lib-Montreal Orutremont), asked if it would not be an economy for the C. N. R. Canadian lines to be run in two divisions like the C. P. R... 1351830 of three as at present.

President l-lungerford reminded the committee the C. U. R. had 6.- 000 more miles of road in Canada. He thought having the Canadian lines divided into three regions tended to efficiency.

In answer to a question by Mr. Kinley, President Hungerford ex- plained the American lines of the Canadian National were important and valuable as feeders.

The Canadian railway situation would be adversely affected if the linas in the United States were dis- posed of Mr. Fairweather said.
